SSLContext created using protocol from REST connector rule form
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
After upgrading to IBM websphere v9.0.5.6 or higher, API calls Like REST, Connect-HTTP etc were failing to connect to endpoints using TLSv1.2. Investigation showed that although the connector was configured to send TLSv1.2, the ClientHello handshake was triggered for TLSv1.3. Because the SSLContext was created with highest version supported by protocol in the WAS container, this has been resolved by modifying the code to create SSLContext based on the the protocol selected in the REST connector rule form. Additionally, please note that the Connect-HTTP connector has been deprecated and the Connect-REST capabilities in the platform should be used instead.

Ruleset Restoration Utility repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Attempting to use the standard Ruleset Restoration utility after update was resulting in a "Status:fail Operator:Unauthenticated or not available Node:No ID available" error message. This was a missed use case for the refactoring done around importing rules, and was caused by the utility calling the deprecated Importable.isValidImport() method. This has been resolved by updating the import activity to restore its functionality.

Additional diagnostic logging added for ElasticSearch startup issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The PyIndexerState was stuck in Starting status during node initialization. This issue could occur if the filesystem became hung due to network level issue while scanning entries from /etc/mtab, resulting in a lock which was not released correctly. In order to better determine which node entry in a cluster may be responsible for the hang, an update has been made which will use a temporary virtual environment to repeat the part of the initialization phase responsible and generate additional logs for debugging. To activate this, the PegaSearch.Diagnostics logger must be set in DEBUG mode. This duplicated virtual initialization will not interrupt the normal initialization.

Simplified default reference time calculations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After a job scheduler was configured to run at Start time = 21:00:00 for Time zone = Europe/London, the scheduler determined 20:00:00 as the next start time. This was due to the calculation for the next start time using the time zone offset calculation pattern for the date and time stored in System-Runtime-Context.pxCreateDateTime, which had difficulty with changes to the time zone definition implemented in the time between the given date and today (meaning the current time) such as daylight savings time. To resolve this, the default reference time from System Runtime Context will be 'now' instead of Date(0).

Documentation updated for using Connect MQ with clustered queues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
